Source policy

Every source has a boundary.

An official schedule can establish intent and timing. Only a completion statement or an account-level change can establish that a reset happened.

PrioritySourceWhat it establishes
Very highOfficial explicit time and clarificationThe intended date, hour and source wording for a scheduled window.
Very highOfficial completion statementThe reset action was said to be triggered; propagation may remain incomplete.
Very highFresh account usage or status readingThe strongest proof that one account’s allowance changed.
HighMultiple independent paid-account reportsWhether rollout has begun across plans and coarse regions.
ContextHistorical events and incident contextA prior probability, not a current commitment.
AdvisoryIndependent trackersDiscovery and archives; never official confirmation authority.
UnverifiedReposts, anonymous predictions and single reportsAt most an investigation lead.

Correction policy

Changes stay attached to the event.

If a source corrects an hour, date or timezone, the forecast updates and the prior interpretation remains in the event record. Subscribers who received the affected alert receive a correction without waiting for the normal quiet period.

Deleted posts are never paraphrased as live official evidence without an archive that preserves the original identifier and timestamp. Mirrors help recover context, but are labeled as mirrors.

If the scheduled window passes without adequate completion evidence, the state changes to “Window passed, unconfirmed.” It does not silently roll forward.
